  • Dr. Isher Judge Ahluwalia on HER
    Remembering Dr. Isher Judge Ahluwalia ON HER BIRTH ANNIVERSARY Isher Judge Ahluwalia was inspired by issues of urbanisation and governance Rajat Kathuria | Indian Express | September 29, 2020 For a scholar of her stature and with all the exceptional achievements to boot, she could well have rested on her laurels. There was nothing left to prove. But that was not Isher. Isher last public appearance on ICRIER's platform was in February this year at the launch of Montek Singh Ahluwalia’s memoir, Backstage. When the phone rang to inform me of the passing away of Isher Judge Ahluwalia, former chairperson of ICRIER and my former boss, the world stopped, if only for an instant, as if someone had pressed a pause button. The poignancy of the moment was accompanied by a flashback of memories of a smiling Isher with perfectly groomed salt and pepper hair, announcing with grace, dignity, poise, charm and brilliance, the start of another conference at ICRIER. Her public persona was larger than life. Behind the exterior, there was also an Isher who was compassionate, supportive, loyal and who possessed almost a childlike desire to learn about issues that drew her interest. My close association with Isher began fittingly with a conference in April 2012. I was to take over as director and chief executive of ICRIER later that year. She decided to “induct” me at an ICRIER event in Vigyan Bhavan where the then Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was the chief guest. An updated edition of the festschrift, India’s Economic Reforms and Development: Essays for Manmohan Singh, co-edited by Isher was to be presented to him.

In 1947, the country commenced its long march to overcome the colonial legacy of economic underdevelopment, gross poverty, near-total illiteracy, wide prevalence of diseases, and stark social inequality and injustice. Achieving independence was only the first stop, the first break—the end of colonial political control: centuries of backwardness was now to be overcome, the promises of the freedom struggle to be fulfilled, and people‘s hopes to be met. The task of nation-building was taken up by the people and leaders with a certain elan and determination and with confidence in their capacity to succeed. When Nehru assumed office as the first Prime Minister of India, there were a myriad of issues lying in front of him, vying for his attention. Nehru knew that it was highly important that he prioritized things. For him, ―First things must come first and the first thing is the security and stability of India.‖ In the words of eminent political scientist W.H Morris- Jones, the imminent task was to ―hold things together, to ensure survival, to get accustomed to the feel of being in the water, to see to it that the vessels keep afloat‖.

The Finance Minister said that we have to be alert to shape real-time policy responses, reform systems, improve the regulatory framework of our institutions and make the most of the opportunities coming our way. The Finance Minister Shri Mukherjee said that economic reforms undertaken more specifically since 1990s, have led to a rapid globalisation of the Indian economy. As a result, the nature and the domain of public policy making is undergoing a major transformation, the Minister added. He said that on the one hand, there is an urgent need to build and strengthen the public capacity to follow and analyse international economic developments, process information from diverse sources and respond to them quickly, in keeping with the national interests. On the other hand, with the centre of economic activity shifting towards the non-state actors in the economy, it is important to reorient government processes towards bringing about greater policy transparency, coherence and coordination across sectors and between different levels of government, Shri Mukherjee added. The Union Finance Minister Shri Pranab Mukherjee was speaking at a function organized here today to mark the Golden Jubilee Celebrations of Indian Economic Service (IES).
